Gem Locations

This Spyro game is no different from any previous version as they still are hiding the gems away in all the same places. For those who have yet to experience a Spyro game before, here are the types of locations that gems will be hidden in:

Most of the gems you'll see will be found lying around, waiting for you to come and pick them up. Sparx can do most of the dirty work here.

You'll also find plenty of these baskets strewn around, they're vulnerable to both your flame and charge attacks.

Similar to the basket, but you can't open them with your flame, instead you will need to charge into these, though only requiring a small tap.

Ripto's Banners can be found on walls around the Dragon World, flame them to get the gems that somehow are hiding inside.

There are four different coloured locked chests; Gold, Purple, Green and Red. You'll require two halves of the same coloured key in order to open them, and they can contain either gems or an item that you may be looking to collect.

And as with almost all of the previous games, you'll get gems from killing your enemies, the Rhynocs, though only the for the first kill, the rest of the time they'll drop nothing.

Starting/Saving/Loading a Game

To start a new game you'll have to go to the initial main menu when you start the game up, select Start New Game and then select one of the three spots for your save. Remember which one this is as you'll need to load the game from it. Saving a game is as easy as pausing and selecting Save Game.

Options

The game has only three options for you to alter:
Music: On/Off - turns the music on or off
Sound FX: On/Off - turns the game sounds (such as your fire breath) on or off
Speech FX: On/Off - turns the squeaking known as speech on or off

Byrd Rescue

This option has three different types of missions for you to do. Head to Head where you compete against another player, Cooperative where you work together and Single Player where you work by yourself, and isn't a multiplayer game. These will only become playable after you complete the game so you may have to wait a while before you can start playing these. To play them you will need two GBAs and a link cable.

Comments

Just wanted to say how much I love this game, definately one of my favourite Spyro games, ( if you can pick a favourite ). I finished it about a year ago but enjoyed it so much I'm playing it a second time around. I have 93%, got all items, just getting the last few gems now so I can buy the last heart. What an awesome game!!!

Dark52, thank you so much for such a fantastic website, walkthroughs, maps and everything else, its excellent.

I am on agent 9's mission to get the first half of the purple key. I have freed 7 of the agents, and ive got the red key ready to unlock the last agent. The problem is, you have to go back to the beginning of the level, (next to the first fairy) to free the last agent. This would be easy, only, there is a moving platform near the first fairy that is impossible to get onto, so there is no way of getting back to free the last agent! Pleeeeeeeeeeeaaaaaaassssssssseeeeeee help -i have been stuck for months!!!

I used my wind ability and got inside but then you drop down to the ground and I can't get back up again, I can see a door at the far right hand side but can't jump high enough, I can't take the hat inside with me?
